The lady that was giving unsolicited plastics advice for the actress actually received a loooot of backlash after that video and the backlash went a bit viral for about a week, it was not good at all.
The best part about this is That girl had plastic surgery already, to get the face and chin she has So she is literally imposing her own beauty standards onto other people who look completely fine
I seen it on wishlist the Chinese lady with the mouth rubber and she had a blank stare with the mouth open it looked funny and embarrassing and I think they were going for a blow up doll look.
The plastic surgeon who did my breast reduction agreed that the reduction was warranted to reduce my back pain but she also wanted my psychologist to evaluate me for body dysmorphia and to ensure my anxiety wouldn't be a danger around an elective procedure. Sure it was annoying to wait a bit longer before getting the surgery but I was glad she took it all seriously. I was pretty excited for the surgery so I can see why it might worry a doctor...but I lost 2.6 kg of breast tissue in total and I'm still a D cup it was well worth the risk of anxiety attacks lol.
@@PowerfulPlazOfficial this is a medical video talking about medical surgeries and medical misinformation. I think people can talk about medical stuff in the comments. She didn't even say any gory or intimate details, I don't know why anyone would be uncomfortable with the comment.
@@PowerfulPlazOfficial this is a medical video... she has every right to talk about it, *I* was interested in reading it, don't know why you got uncomfortable with it also no matter how many times you say you don't mean to be mean "not everybody needs to know about (something the op obviously cares about)" will always come off that way, even if you truly don't mean it that way
@@PowerfulPlazOfficial "don’t post it on the internet" THOSE are your words, regardless of your intention its still not the best thing to say man, you also just talked about other people being uncomfortable and how you didnt say she shouldnt post it (even though you were basically asking her not to) but you ignore how i mentioned how you sound unkind regardless of your intentions, id like you to acknowledge that.
@@JonDoe-uq1mk bro that's not the point. making judgements and trying to "fix someone's face" is very harmful. imagine watching a video of someone saying what was wrong with YOUR looks, and how they would fix them. at best that would hurt your feelings, at worse it could be the start of body dysmorphia and other disorders
THANK YOU ABOUT THE BODY DYSMORPHIA TALK! It's really saddening to see how many people immediately jump into doing plastic surgery, and that society as a whole seems to support and push people into doing it, instead of trying to build people's confidence and self-esteem as who they are. To say that someone like Natalie Dyer needs to get her faced changed in such a way is ridiculous, she's already beautiful as she is. People don't need to start looking like plastic dolls that all resemble one another.
The truly remarkable irony is all of these young women getting fillers, permanent make-up, and using Retinol is making them look like cougars. I've watched TikToks of women talking about getting fillers and I'm like, "Oh this 50 yr old woman looks good for her age."... she was TWENTY TWO. She had ruined and yes I do mean ruined her face. You can't really go back with fillers because if they remove the filler, you're just going to have premature wrinkles from the skin being overstretched.
the chest compression machine (Lucas) is actually standard in at least several eu countries and is used often (BY AMBULANCES ETC.). Netherlands for example uses them nearly during all cprs and Germany uses them to transport patients to the hospital during cpr. Especially the new model is a really good machine
i think you missed what he was saying. most people that need chest compressions are at home, or outside hiking or w/e and most people don't just carry one around, so you need to know how to do it the manual way. he wasn't saying most emergency services don't carry them.
@@assarcy1 it sounded to me like he didn't really know it and thought it was unpractical in general, so I wanted to share that it is widely used. Good to know that they also use them in the us :)
@@BotDetector-44 the point in the video is that you still need to learn cpr personally because most people that need it will not have the machine at home.. example: your grandpa got a heart attack, you need to do the cpr yourself before the medical professionals can come and help you
hey Dr, Mike. Just want to let you know about the chest compression machine! I am an EMT, and I have used one of these in the past. These are not intended for people to be keeping in their private businesses and households, but they are definitely useful to have around when you are in an ambulance setting or in a setting where you have no partner, and have to continue prolonged chest compressions the benefit is that this machine does not get tired while you may fatigue, so the quality of compressions is not compromised
Hi Mike! I'm not a doctor, but I recently got my first aid for animals and humans. And learned that the chest compression machine (Lucas) is in nearly all ambulances here in the Netherlands, to allow the ambulance personnel to be able to do other things, while this machine does the compressions. Also, this machine doesn't break ribs! It's really great to have in ambulances.
It's also used for in hospital chest compressions for example when someone has massive pulmonary embolism and you're gonna be doing CPR for 90 minutes while administering alteplase (I am a doctor in the Netherlands)
For the man with the eye tats , he did go on to say that although he thought it was cool at first - he faced complications . He is really sensitive to light ( all light ) as his pupils do not dilate - also the annoyance of having people ask questions all the time . He is one of the only few I’ve seen with eye tats that openly admits that it’s not safe and the risk of complications are extremely high .
One of my coworkers was actually one of the first folks to do the eye tattooing- never mentioned complications, but admitted it was highly risky and never having mentioned it doesn't mean there were none. This person however also had tattooed their full face, had it lasered off, and then tattooed over again. They had gauged nostrils, many more body tattoos, subdermal implants etc. Very heavily modified. Definitely seems like something that even folks who have it know it isn't really a great idea and they don't suggest it to others.
@@dormantlime215 I only know of a handful of cases where people have lost their sight due to this ( videos I’ve seen ) and the same goes for most subdermals .. the risks are high for permanent damage . It’s scary what we as humans do to appease our inner self portraits
@@Luna-wh6tq even subdermals arent as dangerous though- potentially losing your eyesight due to complications of the inking is a very, very serious issue compared to tissue damage from an implant. Implants have also been available in medical grade for a long time, while the eye modification is brand new and has no real safe methodology (because the ink itself makes it hard or impossible to diagnose certain eye disorders). It can be scary very scary what humans are willing to do, yes. But I suppose we should be grateful that this is not a common thing and that many people who do it are still... technically fine. to be clear, I'm pro body modification- but I think the eye tattooing is a legitimate long term health risk on a level that it should be heavily discouraged as a practice. It is simply not worth it when contact lenses exist.
Wow, you can spot a mistake and go laugh at it . Hurray ! Yes , leave as you are as useless as your comment . I can fix my typo , you can’t fix your ignorance . 🥰
The Eye tattoo thing is so awful - there are cases of severe Uveitis occurring because of it which can lead to glaucoma and retinal disease. I mean I dig tattoos but ...please...don't take that risk.
@@isaacgleeth3609 while this is true, caution still must be used with color contacts, or any non-prescription contacts in particular, ESPECIALLY scleral! Make sure you purchase them from a reputable seller and use excellent hygiene, they are much riskier than the small vision correcting contacts people are typically used to.
Hi Dr Mike!, Student Paramedic here, that automatic chest compressions kit (LUCAS) isn't available for sale in the UK, as far as I'm aware. It's carried by critical care paramedics and 3CU (paramedics specialized in cardiac arrests) and is incredibly useful, it helps to free up clinicians for other tasks such as monitoring the Corpuls, managing respirations, managing medicines administration, and it's useful for more complex cases as it doesn't get tired, unlike us!
@@Shroomroom-o5d My local ambulance service moved to include one in every single ambulance. According to the paramedics, it's the first thing the firefighters ask for when the ambulance arrives on scene.
@@Shroomroom-o5dyes! Nurse here and we often use these machines en route to hospital or during critical care transport to other areas, ie cardiac centers! We also use them in A&E if trained staff are present depending on how many rounds of CPR we are likely to go through
I'm a medical student and for one of my clinical rotations I went to one of the most advanced emergency hospitals here and they had the chest compression kit like in 4:58 in their emergency room. And let me tell you it's f*ing terrifying seeing this working in a real life situation.
Yes! But the energy it saves in interns and Med students and nurses rotating through doing chest compressions when instead the machine can do them allowing the staff to do the brain requiring bits… it’s amazing. The trauma center near me has one too and they’ve said it’s a miracle and life saver, especially when they get multiple heart attacks or multiple crash victims around the same time.
I saw the Lucas machine in action recently when a middle-aged man collapsed in the hospital car park. Unfortunately the fastest route to the resuscitation rooms from the car park was through the actual A&E waiting room itself 🙈. This machine does literally look and sound the same when being used on an actual human as it did on the mannequin video here. The guy I saw it being used on survived by the way. They brought the unit in to the pod (aka cubicle room) my husband was being treated in, to recharge afterwards. The nurse I spoke to further about the Lucas unit, said it helped improve survival chances, as it - freed up the finite human resource available to carry out other checks and procedures, - it didn’t get tired, it could be attached to a power supply to allow for continued use whilst charging the battery for portable use, and - a defibrillator could still be utilised whilst it was attached.
Thanks Doctor Mike for calling out that guy who was touting raw vegan eating as a health option without acknowledging the extreme privlege he has to do so. Not everyone can eat healthy on their income, not everyone has access to clean water and food that is safe before cooking. ❤
This, also in some cases the process of cooking releases certain nutrients. Also, cooked food (in many cases) tastes better. Enjoy your life people eating only raw is going to realistically extend your life by how much?
Rob was kidding... he was saying to get ripped like me that fast you basically need to be super rich. Which was him saying, don't feel shamed, you probably do not have the resources I have as an actor... lol
And let's be honest, because most actors aren't. Yes, they eat healthy. Yes, they work out for several hour per day. Yes, they have trainers and doctors and nutritionists and entire teams paid to help them. But they also use steroids. Prescribed by a doctor, sure, but still anabolic steroids.
I don't get how people don't understand that he's making a joke. He's a comedian, he created and writes a well-known sitcom. He has talked about his body changes more than once and totally admits to the fact that his career and resources made it possible (the show paid for this endeavor as it was for a scene). Considering he gained and lost 60 pounds for one season and then years later got ripped for another season, I think it's understood that he takes extreme measures.
@@joshm3484 well i mean a lot of actors also go through some pretty devastating both physical and mental changes in these kinds of extreme diets to "get into shape" quickly for a movie or show
Hey Dr Mike: paramedic here and I love your videos. The Lucas device for chest compressions is an amazing tool. You're correct it isn't practical for the streets or in a home but that isn't what it was designed for. It was designed for ambulances as it was found that it is VERY difficult to maintain adequate compressions in a moving vehicle or for agencies where there may only be 1 provider in the back, it is also utilized in emergency rooms for prolonged compressions such as hypothermic arrests where cpr can last for well over an hour and other needs. The Lucas is a medical device not made for the lay person, the price alone prohibits it. Zoll also has a similar device called the, autopulse.
Rob McElhenney is an actor/comedian. The point was he starts really normally saying to excercise and eat less and then it devolved into explaining how basically all you need is a ton of money and personal trainers and it's super easy to get ripped.
I worked as an EMT for a short period of time, and you're 100% right about the automatic chest compression device. However, when you do have one in your rig, it opens up another set of hands, and the machine never gets tired.
exactly this. Only time ive ever seen one used was in the back of an ambulance to free up a set of hands to work on the pt as the driver keeps getting them to the ER. very valuable tool, very effective, and a huge help. But certainly has limited use cases realistically, i'd expect
@@illig3tsniperftw thats insane... Although not really surprising a pricetag, i suppose... I'll leave that to another argument though.. Hopefully all units can have this equipped though, I'm all about anything making first responder jobs easier, especially if it is life saving equipment like this.
When the raw food guy started talking about “you’re looking at the face of someone...” I was waiting for him to tell us he has a horribly rare disease. Then he said he hasn’t eat cooked food in over 5 years and I was like, oh, that explain why he looks so sickly and gross. But then he followed it up like he wasn’t sickly and gross.
I seen the study on raw food eating. Cooking foods breaks it down faster that allows the stomach to work faster into breaking it down farther leading to better absorption in the intestinal track. Raw foods sits in your stomach longer and doesn't break everything down causing more waste. You do lose some nutritional value when cooking, but it's so small that you wouldn't even notice.
4:16 DOCTOR MIKE!!😂 YOU MADE ME SPIT OUT MY WATER💀 THE LAST THING I WAS EXPECTING TO COME OUT OF A DOCTORS MOUTH😭 LOVE THE VIDS DOC! You keep them very entertaining and informative at the same time! I watch multiple almost every day!! Hope your doing well as same with everyone who is reading this! HAVE AN AMAZING DAY/NIGHT!!!!❤❤❤❤
For those who don't know the plastic surgeon who was talking about how they would "fix" Natalia dyer if u want to look into it she made Natalia look exactly like her and if u look at the surgeons past she also had the same facial features as Natalia, so the surgeon was getting rid of her own insecurities on someone else
@@chxrrymxxnlxght still doesn't give her a right to project her own insecurities onto someone else. Especially when there's nothing wrong with Natalia and Natalia isn't looking to get work done. Big yikes.
The LUCAS robots are actually apparently really useful for EMS if they need to continue chest compressions in an ambulance. It makes it a lot stabler in the vehicle and allows the paramedics to potentially focus on other aspects of care (such as administering a medication, getting an airway secured, placing leads to better monitor heart rhythm in case the pulse is there but just very weak or there's a different circulation issue, etc.)
The sock thing is drilled into Marine recruits. Always have fresh socks. You're useless in the field if your feet go bad, and they easily can without clean or at least dry socks. Break in new boots immediately, and keep your socks fresh, are really big deals. All the military specific stuff means nothing if you're immobilized with a foot problem.
@Nemec Reminder you need a boatload more empathy and intelligence to qualify as a non-fuckwit. Go harrass your local barnyard animals instead of random people on the internet.
@@gkb0572 You know that doesn't work, right? Sweat as you're moving about can be just as problematic as trekking through areas that are extremely moist or humid. So you're basically wasting an extra pair or two of socks as they get drenched in sweat. Further more, those plastic bags do not work with constant movement, as there is no way to adhere the opening of the bag to your skin enough to prevent moisture from seeping into the bag as your leg and muscles are moving about. The correct thing to do is to be carrying several fresh pairs of socks in your backpack or rucksack and to change them at minimum every 6 hours if you're in an area with decent humidity, moisture, or if you are sweating, or every 3 hours minimum if you are constantly traveling through swampland.
The LUCAS is machine used by emergency medical personnel, like EMTs and paramedics so they can provide a patient chest compressions while freeing up their hands to attend to the patients other medical needs. It also saves their energy since CPR can be exhausting and stressful, especially when you've been woken up at all hours of the night to respond to other emergencies. My boyfriend is a paramedic, and he has used the LUCAS on patients before.
I follow Footless Jo, she’s a great creator, and educates people about being an amputee. I’m so happy to see you feature her! I also can relate to what she says, I’m dealing with a messed up ankle, and it’s definitely a workout just get to around.
I don't understand why footless joe is in this list... Her content is about her own lived experience and one post (taken out of context and rebranded as miss information) doesn't represent a whole load of valuable content! Dr. Mike's team should check her out properly and invite her on for a collaboration!
@@judithlashbrook4684 I'll admit I've been a little disappointed with Mike and his team lately. Sometimes it seems the team doesn't do proper research for the videos or don't give him context about what he is reacting to, and he doesn't read the comments to see the advice. If you check any of his reactions to Dr. House, he always has the same comments and questions regarding the show, even though people constantly explain in the comments why he is like that, why they do it like that, what it is happening. But there is no change in the content
Hey, so I have a pretty severe dowagers hump. Those “neck stretchers” are designed for people like me. And they actually do work. They just are uncomfortable because it’s literally stretching your spine slowly back into place. But they do work, they just take a week or two to see full effects.
Oh, there was a device i saw, years ago, that was a neck stretcher that attaches to a door, looking like a weird torture device. . This was in a Goodwill thrift store. It was in a box that made it look medical. LOL, i almost forgot about that. That is probably what that was for. Interesting. Hopefully, the inflatable one is better. I'm glad it's as least working for you. that sounds frustrating and uncomfortable to endure.
I have kyphosis too and am convinced that the only way to fix this is to train the muscles at your shoulder blades. This will slowly pull your shoulders backwards and you'll stand more upright. It's annoying and I dislike sports, but for me it already improved quite a bit since going to the gym
@@BrianaLynn7 You have to do your own exercises as well, like the guy above me says. But doing that alone imo hasn’t entirely worked for me. It does a lot, but I struggle holding my posture consistently. That’s why this thing really helps.
Hey Dr. Mike! EM resident physician here. In my country (Spain), the LUCAS (chest compression machine) is used by paramedics once they reach the patient so the machine does the chest compressions during transport to the nearest Hospital. Often patients come in with the LUCAS once we receive them in the ER :)
I was going to say, I've seen this on a show called Nightwatch, and the patients heart wasn't beating, but because the Lucas device was working in the ambulance, the patient was moving around and actually awake.
Former lifeguard here, we used the LUCAS when transporting patients on our speedboat to land, since on rough seas it's nearly impossible to do correct chest compressions!
11:35 That condition is known as trench foot. It's called that because so many soldiers fighting in trenches during WWI suffered from it. Since the trenches were dug with poor drainage systems, they would often be partly flooded with water, leading soldiers feet to rot from soaking. The average life span of a british soldier fighting in trenches was about six weeks.
Also, to the guy talking about raw food: I have several chronic disorders (eoe, ibs, oral allergy syndrome) that prevent me from eating many raw vegetables and fruits. Cooking them breaks down certain fibres and proteins which then makes it safer for me to consume and get the nutrients I need 😊
Also love how he states. "It will cure everything." I wish. I mean. I'd love it, but considering I have a neurological condition that's barely understood despite being known from at least the 1600s. It ain't gonna happen.
I have oral allergy syndrome and it is awful. I can no longer eat any fruits, vegetables, or nuts with it cooked enough to change fibers and proteins. It is incredibly inconvenient. People say to eat raw and it’s like thanks, I’ll remember you when I can’t breathe.
Maybe it's just me but does that raw food guy look like an oil painting of a corpse? There's just something really unnatural looking about him like he's rotting away and is caking on makeup to hide it.
0:01 literally me. I get headaches a lot, sometimes they’re so small I just lay down and drink water, and they’re gone in five minutes. Sometimes, it feels like my head is about to explode. It makes breathing hurt, because the air feels colder, meaning that my lungs and the inside of my nose feel like they’re about to freeze off, so I take small breaths, making me lightheaded, which makes the headache worse, which makes my nose and lungs hurt more, and it’s just an awful cycle. But every time my mom massages my shoulders/neck, it’s gone almost instantly. Soooo..
4:00 Her face is unique and beautiful, like many others, since no one is the same for the most part. her end result by the "doctor" was literally APPALING.
It was pretty bad. A person can make all the corrections they want, but unless it's to correct something that actually could use help, like severe damage from an accident, plastic surgery just tends to make a person look more and more fake and uncanny.
@@EstherHulst-Artist I noticed all her photoshopping just turned her more similar to the doctor and it was then I realised her eyebrows looked glued up and her forehead was shinny like plastic.
I absolutely love Footless Jo, she’s an incredible content creator and I love that she shares all aspects of life as an amputee. The good and the bad, the wonderful days getting to live life how she wants and the phantom pain that she can do nothing about but endure the best she can. She’s raw and willing to put herself out there in a really impressive way. I have a ton of respect for her. She also has an excellent sense of humor.
Someone's probably already pointed this out, but the baby-ear-q-tip thing is just run backwards. There's lots of them out there, they're fun to watch XD
I'm glad you used 'withdrawal' to describe what happens after you get off certain meds. The clinical-sounding "discontinuation syndrome" always rubbed me the wrong way.
I think some people avoid it due to connotations it has with addiction, and since so many people don’t differentiate chemical dependency and addiction, it can cause further confusion, but I never loved “discontinuation syndrome,” either. Maybe instead of using a soft language term, we should just… I dunno, educate people! 😅
@@AmaraJordanMusic If it was as simple as just educating people, you wouldn't have people confusing addiction to illegal drugs with doctor's treatments.
@@TheSwauzz Respectfully, I disagree. I’ve encountered people who don’t want to hear, who think they can spot an addict, “you can always tell, just how they look,” even in the medical field. And those people aren’t reachable. But there are a lot of people who haven’t been chronically ill or been around addictive medication very much. They hear about the Opioid crisis all the time, they hear about alcohol addiction. It’s in the media all the time. Fights, crashes, overdoses. It’s all about addiction. Chemical dependency simply doesn’t get the same amount of air time, it’s not a national topic of concern and conversation. I’ve had people think I was an addict because I was on pain medication. I had to explain to them, “Yes, for some people, taking pain meds effects them wildly differently and their brains light up like Christmas. For me, when I take a pill, if I feel anything other than less pain, it’s maybe itchy, sleepy, or queasy. That’s my body telling me it’s a higher dose than usual. But I don’t feel “euphoria,” or get high from it. I’m lucky that that’s how my brain deals with narcotics, but for some people, if they had the regimen I had, they’d be experiencing addiction, which is different.” Then a brief explanation of that. “If I stop the meds, I will go through withdrawal, much like an addict would, because my body has been used to it for so long that not having the medication all of a sudden would shock it. That’s why we taper slowly and switch to a non-narcotic, then no pain medication.” Most realized I was not an addict. Two people called it BS. One came to me later and apologized. He’d looked it up and found out I wasn’t lying, like he expected an addict would. For other people (I’m a patient outreach supervisor at a pain clinic), the summary would be, “People’s brains react differently. Some don’t develop addiction, but can experience withdrawal if they discontinue their meds because your body is still used to it, and it IS a powerful brain-altering substance. Don’t worry, just taking it does not mean you’re an addict, but don’t discontinue without making a tapering plan with us so we can avoid withdrawal. No need for extra pain.” Some people get it, accept it, move on. Some people are more nervous and need more information. We even get people who self-report when they think they develop a problem, or are starting to. It’s much more likely that that will happen when we have an open conversation about addiction risk and other treatment options from the get-go. Understanding addiction, and how it starts, helps some people get out of the cycle before they have to hit rock bottom. People that understand addiction and chemical dependency and withdrawal tend to be more open about those processes and less judgy-shamey with themselves and others about it. It’s just another thing our bodies do. 🤷🏻♀️ Some people don’t want to learn, sure. But that doesn’t mean information isn’t power.
I don't know what's worse: the fact that they think they're giving legit advice or the amount of people that will actually believe them. Thankfully, we have someone like Dr. Mike to fact check them.
For the amputee one, this person had daily pain in her ankle from the time she was young (a result from an accident involving a horse) so her activity levels were likely extremely low before she got her amputation, which would explain her talking about being more hungry
I agree with the body dysmorphia counseling when getting plastic surgery. I had my nose changed when my chronic rhinitis was fixed. Because I did this surgery outside of the U.S. I did not get counseling and my surgeon wanted to really change my nose. I was glad that I told him I simply wanted my nose to look how it had before I broke it.
Doctor Mike, I’ve spent and uncomfortable amount of time just having your content run in the background because your content is genuine. Keep up the good work and thank you. Your comment on how not everyone can afford to choose safe/healthy options. Most blatantly ignore that fact and you called it out immediately. Good man, thank you.
Thank you for discouraging plastic surgery. I think it is so sad that people think they need to modify themselves to look good. We need more people like you telling them the grass is not greener on the other side.
A lot of mental illnesses work like that. You think "If I could only have/do/look like x, I could finally be happy." Then that thing happens, and your anxiety or depression just finds something else to fixate on. That's how plastic surgery addicts are formed.
i mean, theres definitely good uses for plastic surgery! after a severe accident, if youre trans... but i do agree, if its purely because you suffer from body dysmorphia (not to be confused with gender dysphoria!), its best to seek a therapist instead of a plastic surgeon
When you started screaming “Reverse them we’LL LIVE FOREVER AGHH!” and cut yourself off I laughed for 10 mins straight 😂 Thanks for this debunking video Dr. Mike! Also just wanted to say that I’ve been watching you for 3 years, both during and after nursing school. As a practicing inpatient RN who has now seen/heard the stuff in this video, I’m JUST as extremely amused and extremely frustrated 😂 Like…this is exactly what misinformation is! Never take medical advice, ESPECIALLY on social media, unless it’s from a reputable medical source aka your doctor, your nurse, your allied health professionals!! ✌🏾 Love you Dr. Mike ❤
The neck stretcher is good to help with stiffness. As a person that has had 2 neck surgeries due to ruptured disc and stenosis, that machine has helped alleviate a lot of pain without having to take pain meds. I only use it when my neck gets stiff a long with stretches of course. Was recommended by my chiropractor. May be a mind over matter thing but with no pain meds, I'm down with the placebo effect.
Nah, I could see that. Helps create space between the vertebrae, which can certainly relieve pain. I have two herniated discs from a car accident, and I achieve similar results with an inversion board.
Nah, my dad’s a pain management specialist who tries to work around pain meds when he can, and for some patients things like that work wonders. Having their necks in traction for I think just 5-15 minutes a few times a day when they’re having issues can really keep the problem from getting worse, their pain compounding, and them then needing pain medication. A trigger for migraines for me is tension in my neck causing a tension headache, and one of those expanding neck wraps helped me get ahead of it before the muscle had time to keep tightening up. I do recommend using some heat beforehand, but generally, it’s a snazzy that they’re more widely available now.
I know that bad boy worked because it would stretch my neck so much that it would Crack and I'd feel like separate. It felt like I gained am inch. I got a new , better , more intricate stretcher a few days ago and I love it. But that blow up one definitely helped. I had to really blow it up as much as it possible could go though. That's why I switched to the kind where you put your head in a contraption and can pull it up and it will lock where you lift it too. I can pull down my my body weight to separate the cervical spine
I had withdrawal symptoms last week from vitamin d when I accidentally stopped taking it instead of going down the dose I was supposed to. It was wild actually. Brain fog, super irritability, etc.
The clip at 6:15 about the guy getting into that shape he's actually extremely honest about how much effort it takes and how bad it is long term to be doing that to your body. I think its a great clip to be honest. He's basically saying not to aim for movie bodies, aim to just be in shape for your body and your needs.
This is cap It may be bad/unachievable for some, but it’s not that way for everyone, so don’t discourage people I maintain 10% body fat and 30lbs more muscle mass than my baseline year round natural and without dieting just training 3x a week
That's rob, creator of It's always in sunny. Him and the whole cast are great people (despite the show content) and are always aiming to be truthful and forthcoming. The genius interview was based on a season where"mac" came in fully ripped.
@@AgentK83 That's you then. Still 10% isn't what you see in movies. Some of the actors have to get down to 5% body fat just for a few fight scenes, or do the opposite, put on weight and mass to look bigger while still being in shape all in a matter of months.
I love these videos because they’re really funny, and interesting. You also learn a lot of things, and when Doctor Mike doesn’t know the answer to something he’ll try his best to find answers right than and there during the video. I really like these!!
One small thing with the chest compression robot. My dad’s a firefighter/paramedic, and he’s said their department uses it a lot. It’s just a much more consistent alternative while they’re preparing the person for transport. Plus if I’m right, you can attach it to the gurney and have it running while you’re driving to the hospital if need be (could be wrong on that though)
I've definitely seen it used in a UK based documentary where they follow ambulance crews (and the air ambulance) around to scenes. It allowed them to drive faster to hospital as there wasn't a paramedic having to stand in the back doing compressions, they could sit seatbelted in, just monitoring the machine keeping the patient alive.
Yes, it´s also used in helicopters where CPR can be pretty much imposible due to the small space, and for organ donors, to keep the blood flowing until you arrive to the hospital
Im so glad you did a clip from Footless Jo. I love watching her because, as someone who is not an amputee, I naturally have questions. She answers a lot of wonders freely and openly. I know for me, I get insanely hungry when Im sick (flu or cold), or, I found out, after I had a series of dental surgery visits. I was incredibly hungry all the time for about two weeks. I think its not only us trying to heal, but also she had to adapt and use more calories learning to walk again. Just figured Id share, because when I saw that clip on her channel, I thought the two situations were oddly similar.
I also love that she's not afraid to do and say the "wrong" things like not act inspirational all the time and admitting that it just sucks and that's OK.
12:50 A friend of mine was sharing information she learned from a Tiktok video that was absolutely absurd. She shared that if your mucous is clear, it’s a sign you are fighting an infection. I had to share with her that her “fact” was certifiably inaccurate. Mucous should be clear and a green tinge to it is sign of infection. It is sad how much false information is out there…
3:50 from what i know, she used to have a jawline like hers and got it surgically removed, so she is basically saying ''i was insecure about this part of myself so she should be too''
The chest compression machine is used by healthcare professionels. We also have it in Denmark. They often use it when they have to give a person chest compressions for a longer period of time. It's actually really handy and I have seen it being used on multiple occasions
@@Facadeee Relax dude. I never said anything about not getting the job done. I'm just saying that it's a handy tool for healthcare workers. They use it because it never gets tired like people do. Take a chill pill and have a nice day
I'm a Respiratory Therapist and I've seen it used once before. It's SUPER handy. But it is a bit pricey to have which is unfortunate because it works so well! 😊
I would have *loved* having one of those things for chest compressions when I worked bedside!! I can remember a few times when I didn't really have anyone to switch with due to understaffing and my back is definitely the poorer for it!
Thank god for people like you who can calmly call out these people; I was sitting here losing my mind and yelling at the screen at these absolute psychos. It’s six am, I woke up my elderly parents.
My sisters and I used to be not hungry all the time but able to put an incredible amount of food away when we did eat-it turned out that we weren’t properly digesting our food (if I recall correctly it was due to lack of proper bacteria and enzymes, and a disorder of not digesting fat on our own), so we weren’t getting enough nutrition from what we ate and needed more to get enough.
At 11:55. What you're talking about is called Trench Foot, and it can result in the forced amputation of the lower legs. This was quite common during the first world war, after being for long times in the trenches. Therefor, Trench Foot.
Had a high school teacher who was in a tropical area while military, while he didn't get into graphic detail we all had an appreciation for ensuring we didn't stay in wet socks/shoes for long periods after his class
I've had that when backpacking in wet weather for a couple days. My skin got so soft, it split in a few places. Idk if it was actually trench foot or not. It cleared up after a few days of dry socks, foot powder and some antibiotic ointment on the splits.
11:40. That guy had Trench Foot, which is caused by water being in foot garments, such as socks, for long periods. There were many cases of Trench foot during WW1 because of all the water and knee-deep mud.
as many have pointed out already, the LUCAS is standard in many EU countries. I am a paramedic from Austria and we also use this machine for CPR. In our case only the vehicle transporting the NOTARZT (emergency doctor) has one on board, however since an ambulance AND an emergency doctor are dispatched to a patient in cardiac arrest, we more often than not use this machine to save peoples lives. Greetings from Austria, love your videos:)
Lucas is really cool! I was able to watch it at the long night of science at the meduni vienna :D they demonstrated how it works and also explaint it! Greetings from a nurse student in vienna :D
My ER in the UK also has one (as do at least some of the ambulances), but if your patient isn't receiving manual CPR while they're waiting for the doctor/paramedic to arrive then it probably isn't going to be much use. Especially in the UK where the current wait time for ambulances to respond to a heart attack can be an HOUR! (I'm assuming for cardiac arrests they're faster than that, but who knows...)
@@callum9999 in austria the response time is quicker, thank god nobody has to wait 1h, but I definitely agree. The hands only chest compressions by non medical personel are crucial for the survival of the patient. (Until the ambulance arrives and they can take over). So if no one performs chest compressions for let's say 10min or longer...the LUCAS will not magically bring them back to life. I definitely agree with you on that
I was a reporter and did a story 10 years ago about how the Lucas machine was being used in every Palm Beach County rescue vehicle. Emergency workers would hook it up to patients that need chest compressions while transporting to the hospital. It made sure the compressions were perfect and freed up emergency workers to focus on other life saving aid.
PREACH Doctor MIKE! I tried telling my niece about this. On day she came to me with something she saw on facebook that helped her with something medical. I responded with “yeah, and did you know that if you rub coconut oil on your face before you go to bed it gets rid of your acne?” My niece: “What? Really?! I didnt know that” Me: 🤦🏼♀️
Oh Dr Mike we've been using the Lucas device for chest compressions in the hospital setting for a while now, and it works especially well at providing quality compressions without the fatigue a person would experience. Helpful for paramedics also!
I work with a lot of teens for my job, and I often have to have a conversation with them about the legitimacy of tiktok "facts. Especially in regards to mental health, and beauty and diet culture. The misinformation that tiktok teaches is worrying, but so happy for the factual way Doctor Mike handles these things!
It's really troubling that people fall for things like this, and just general "internet stupidity"; before their ability to use common sense is fully formed. I feel like so much bogus content goes on to cause continuing damage to vital cognitive brain function. And all hope of learning to think and act logically is impaired greatly. As cliché as it sounds, we didn't need labels on everything to tell us to "not attempt at home". We knew that if we jumped from someplace high, that gravity was gonna do its job, and that someone was gonna get hurt. So many kids, and young adults even, just seem to be lacking basic logic. It is definitely concerning.
I think one of the reasons why it's happening more and more nowadays also has to do with the fact that many medical professionals don't take people's concerns seriously so they have no other way to turn to expect the internet.
Unfortunately even people like Dr Mike teach incorrect facts, in this video alone he said factually incorrect things about the use of the LUCAS and also about caloric intake required by amputees
The best baby reflexes are when you lightly touch the side of their cheek with your finger, their little head turns and their mouth opens slightly and it’s the cutest thing ever 🥰 The second one is taking your finger and gently gliding it on the sole of their foot. It extends their foot and wiggles their toes in the most adorable way! This is also a neat trick to help a parent get shoes on a toddler if they crinkle their toes into a ball and won’t extend them 😂 My oldest son ended up in the NICU for a long period of time and before he finally came home the doctor spent a long time showing me how to properly check his reflexes. She taught me how to check everything from his head, all the way to his toes and showed me exactly how the reflexes were supposed to look so I knew what to expect and if there might be something wrong. I’ve had two more kids since then and I did the same thing for both of them even though they had no health concerns at birth. I also taught my friends how to check their babies as well 🥰 not only is it good for parents to check these things but it’s also so stinkin cute!
I appreciate that Rob detailed how he got so ripped and simultaneously explained how unrealistic it is for any human without tons of money that is simultaneously doing literally anything else besides trying to get ripped af. Some people really need to hear it, that celebrities are just not going to be in yhe dame environment as the rest of us because when yout job relies on your looks, your job is going to incorporate time to work on looks and the money needed to maintain them.
Yes! It's like admiring any talent while ignoring the cost of lessons, hours of pratice, and years of sacrificing other interests. We have unrealistic expectations! I recently read that in Norway, published photos have to display a notice that they've been digitally altered. We need to be reminded that what's real and healthy is what's going to make us happy! 😊
@@augenblick9925 true, and also hours of studying and stress which i realized when i was listening to dr. mike’s videos. 😭 i js decided to be an engr bec i can’t handle that stress
You have to be a special person to want to be a doctor for real. You could be a construction worker (still hard work) and make a similar wage. Dr. Mike probably actually cares about people, judging by his content.
What Dr Mike said about the eyeball tattoos, its really a shame to me how risky the procedure is and how difficult it would make diagnosing any eye issues. I love the way tattoos like that look and if i could have my sclera tattooed without significant risk and without the judgement of other people i would absolutely do it
Honestly, if you have no problems with putting contacts in, i'd say get some colored sclera contacts. They can be a little expensive, and putting ANYTHING in your eyes has its risks (especially if you havent done enough research). But if you wanna have fully black eyes sometimes, contacts are safer than tattooing.
Mine anf my moms nose often do that but to my dad that's still such a weird thing because He has never experienced that except for like Real spicy food.
I love the tenacity in the way Dr. Mike debunks some of these things in media 😂 Just watching his face as he is preparing to smash the really far fetched concepts makes me laugh.
And how some of the things that look ridiculous he reserves a bit of comment on without trying or learning more. Maybe a stretch, but the 'mouth thing' could very well be a tool for endoscopy, with a little 'fun' added to it. The neck stretcher might actually be a help using it for a few minutes, no worse than doing some stretches... (Granted, this doesn't take into account cost/benefit for something that is already easy for most people...).
Over the summer, I had severe pain in my shoulder that was radiating down my arm. My doctor recommended I try the neck stretcher. He said if it helped with the pain, it could potentially indicate the issue was coming from my neck. It didn't really help the pain, but it felt okay. Turns out I had a herniated disc in my neck that was pressing against a nerve.
@@OctavKitty He did thankfully. He recommended trying it while we waited for the results of the MRI. Very little was helping unfortunately, so this was just something to try to see if it helped.
I was once mountain biking on this intermediate trail I hated so much I had to ride the brakes, because it's so hard to control the bike. I decided NOT to use the brakes anymore and step out of my comfort zone for a slightly large root drop, about 1-3 feet not too much. Right after it is a decently sharp left turn that I couldn't take going as fast as I was, it was easily 10-20 MPH and just went SOARING into bushes. I almost broke my lower left ribs, because I had a nasty gash right under my farthest lower left rib and was shaken up. Me and my dad went down to the bottom of the mountain, which had the medical team there. They gave me gauze, tape, Neosporin all the good stuff. I really couldn't eat food; all I could do was drink Gatorade. Right after I went right back up the lift and kept shredding on green trails, took it really easy and had fun. I still have a scar in the same spot, it healed relatively quickly. Looking back on it, I'm glad it happened. I learned not to go above my skill level, and I always remember it with laughs and smiles.
2:06 I actually had a patient in the hospital at age 38 with aspirational pneumonia because of that exact reason! Passed out drunk and all her friends left her by herself and she was found the next day by a family member
I know it’s a funny video, but I just want to thank Dr. Mike for dispelling these harmful TikTok’s, not only physically harmful but for me especially mentally harmful. I really appreciate when he dispels myths about body image and losing weight because as a woman, even though I stay away from social media and beauty media, I’m still harmed by the things people say and it’s so nice for someone to just verify how ridiculous some of the things are.
Doctor Mike, as someone in prosthetics and orthotics school (master's program), it is actually a known fact that amputation and ambulating with a prosthesis does lead to significantly higher energy expenditure for as many years post-op as they continue to ambulate with prostheses. This is something we covered last week in school. While there may be another problem at play in anyone who experiences this, it may actually be normal.
A lot of disabilities can affect your calorie requirements. I have a neurological condition, my mobility is limited and I have muscle spasms. I'm significantly less active than I was before, I haven't changed my diet but I haven't gained any weight.
I love how he didn’t get the joke on the 2nd one, THAT’S CAKE! There are these videos that make you think they’re doing something that they shouldn’t do, but they’re actually cutting cake.
Hey Dr Mike, I'd love to see a reaction video on a couple episodes of the golden girls, like the one where Rose is waiting for her AIDS results and especially the two part one where Dorothy can't find a doctor who will take her illness seriously. Her speech to the doctor that dismissed her... Epic. That was all from creator/writer Susan Harris' own experiences.
I recalled the dismissal of illness episode when the doctors tried the same to me and kept being a pest until they gave me the right test and found my not imaginary problem. I know I couldn't have been the only one to think that way because of it.
Daughter of a First Aid instructor here! My mother has been a huge fan of the Lucas pump for a while. You're right that it's not very useful in situations where random people just find someone in the street or if something happens at home, but it's hugely useful for ambulance personnel. Because that thing will keep giving chest compressions while the patient is on the stretcher being transported and that frees up the ambulance workers' hands for other things that might increase their chance of survival. It can keep giving chest compressions in transit wihout the hassle of having another person needing enough space and the right angle to keep giving compressions. For example, while you're loading the patient up into the ambulance, that thing is still on and still giving chest compressions. Same goes for hospital situations, by the way. It just frees up one person's hands and requires less space than someone having to kneel or stand beside the person. I don't think it was ever meant for use by lay people in the street. From what I've heard it's used primarily by professionals like ambulance and hospital personnel.
I’ve seen the chest compression kit being used quite a few times on “Night Watch” the New Orleans based reality rescue show. It’s incredible! I mean it little hard to watch at first cause it looks so rough, but that’s how good chest compression are suppose to look. It keeps the blood flow going the whole trip, and frees up the paramedics to work on other things to help the patient.
That plastic surgeon has some personal insecurities that she's projecting HARD. In case you need to hear this, you do not exist to be attractive to other people. You are amazing and wonderful when you don’t put any time or care into your appearance and you’re just as amazing and wonderful when you do.
The lady that was giving unsolicited plastics advice for the actress actually received a loooot of backlash after that video and the backlash went a bit viral for about a week, it was not good at all.
I guarantee you they only used her face bc she was famous and internet clicks are apparently very important
I actually like 'Nancy's face as it is. Looks cute-er than her bad photoshop skills
The best part about this is
That girl had plastic surgery already, to get the face and chin she has
So she is literally imposing her own beauty standards onto other people who look completely fine
Obviously her looks are outstanding enough to put on TV exactly as they are. Leave her alone!
I seen it on wishlist the Chinese lady with the mouth rubber and she had a blank stare with the mouth open it looked funny and embarrassing and I think they were going for a blow up doll look.
The way he said "they suck" with the most genuine face after she says "how do you like my photoshop skills" is hilarious

The plastic surgeon who did my breast reduction agreed that the reduction was warranted to reduce my back pain but she also wanted my psychologist to evaluate me for body dysmorphia and to ensure my anxiety wouldn't be a danger around an elective procedure. Sure it was annoying to wait a bit longer before getting the surgery but I was glad she took it all seriously. I was pretty excited for the surgery so I can see why it might worry a doctor...but I lost 2.6 kg of breast tissue in total and I'm still a D cup it was well worth the risk of anxiety attacks lol.

THANK YOU ABOUT THE BODY DYSMORPHIA TALK! It's really saddening to see how many people immediately jump into doing plastic surgery, and that society as a whole seems to support and push people into doing it, instead of trying to build people's confidence and self-esteem as who they are. To say that someone like Natalie Dyer needs to get her faced changed in such a way is ridiculous, she's already beautiful as she is. People don't need to start looking like plastic dolls that all resemble one another.
Because "negativity" and "shaming" is no longer ok. If if it's objectively untrue or dangerous.
The truly remarkable irony is all of these young women getting fillers, permanent make-up, and using Retinol is making them look like cougars. I've watched TikToks of women talking about getting fillers and I'm like, "Oh this 50 yr old woman looks good for her age."... she was TWENTY TWO. She had ruined and yes I do mean ruined her face. You can't really go back with fillers because if they remove the filler, you're just going to have premature wrinkles from the skin being overstretched.
the chest compression machine (Lucas) is actually standard in at least several eu countries and is used often (BY AMBULANCES ETC.). Netherlands for example uses them nearly during all cprs and Germany uses them to transport patients to the hospital during cpr. Especially the new model is a really good machine
It’s used in USA to we used them for transport till they reach a higher level of care
i think you missed what he was saying. most people that need chest compressions are at home, or outside hiking or w/e and most people don't just carry one around, so you need to know how to do it the manual way. he wasn't saying most emergency services don't carry them.
@@assarcy1 it sounded to me like he didn't really know it and thought it was unpractical in general, so I wanted to share that it is widely used. Good to know that they also use them in the us :)
@@assarcy1 Lucas is supposed to be carried by paramedics, not by your grandpa ...
@@BotDetector-44 the point in the video is that you still need to learn cpr personally because most people that need it will not have the machine at home.. example: your grandpa got a heart attack, you need to do the cpr yourself before the medical professionals can come and help you
hey Dr, Mike. Just want to let you know about the chest compression machine! I am an EMT, and I have used one of these in the past. These are not intended for people to be keeping in their private businesses and households, but they are definitely useful to have around when you are in an ambulance setting or in a setting where you have no partner, and have to continue prolonged chest compressions the benefit is that this machine does not get tired while you may fatigue, so the quality of compressions is not compromised
Hi Mike! I'm not a doctor, but I recently got my first aid for animals and humans. And learned that the chest compression machine (Lucas) is in nearly all ambulances here in the Netherlands, to allow the ambulance personnel to be able to do other things, while this machine does the compressions. Also, this machine doesn't break ribs! It's really great to have in ambulances.
That is cool🤩
It's also used for in hospital chest compressions for example when someone has massive pulmonary embolism and you're gonna be doing CPR for 90 minutes while administering alteplase
(I am a doctor in the Netherlands)
@@janiekie12 hi! And thank you for the input ^^ glad to hear they're used in more places. Also keep up the great work. You got dis!

For the man with the eye tats , he did go on to say that although he thought it was cool at first - he faced complications . He is really sensitive to light ( all light ) as his pupils do not dilate - also the annoyance of having people ask questions all the time . He is one of the only few I’ve seen with eye tats that openly admits that it’s not safe and the risk of complications are extremely high .
One of my coworkers was actually one of the first folks to do the eye tattooing- never mentioned complications, but admitted it was highly risky and never having mentioned it doesn't mean there were none. This person however also had tattooed their full face, had it lasered off, and then tattooed over again. They had gauged nostrils, many more body tattoos, subdermal implants etc. Very heavily modified.
Definitely seems like something that even folks who have it know it isn't really a great idea and they don't suggest it to others.
@@dormantlime215 I only know of a handful of cases where people have lost their sight due to this ( videos I’ve seen ) and the same goes for most subdermals .. the risks are high for permanent damage . It’s scary what we as humans do to appease our inner self portraits
@@Luna-wh6tq even subdermals arent as dangerous though- potentially losing your eyesight due to complications of the inking is a very, very serious issue compared to tissue damage from an implant. Implants have also been available in medical grade for a long time, while the eye modification is brand new and has no real safe methodology (because the ink itself makes it hard or impossible to diagnose certain eye disorders).
It can be scary very scary what humans are willing to do, yes. But I suppose we should be grateful that this is not a common thing and that many people who do it are still... technically fine.
to be clear, I'm pro body modification- but I think the eye tattooing is a legitimate long term health risk on a level that it should be heavily discouraged as a practice. It is simply not worth it when contact lenses exist.
He... "faced" complications. HAHA! Alright I'll leave.
Wow, you can spot a mistake and go laugh at it .
Hurray ! Yes , leave as you are as useless as your comment . I can fix my typo , you can’t fix your ignorance . 🥰
The Eye tattoo thing is so awful - there are cases of severe Uveitis occurring because of it which can lead to glaucoma and retinal disease. I mean I dig tattoos but ...please...don't take that risk.
I mean, colored contacts are cheaper and a much lower risk.
@@isaacgleeth3609 while this is true, caution still must be used with color contacts, or any non-prescription contacts in particular, ESPECIALLY scleral! Make sure you purchase them from a reputable seller and use excellent hygiene, they are much riskier than the small vision correcting contacts people are typically used to.

Fall asleep first in the sleepover, and it’s over. I’m poppin that eye.
Hi Dr Mike!, Student Paramedic here, that automatic chest compressions kit (LUCAS) isn't available for sale in the UK, as far as I'm aware. It's carried by critical care paramedics and 3CU (paramedics specialized in cardiac arrests) and is incredibly useful, it helps to free up clinicians for other tasks such as monitoring the Corpuls, managing respirations, managing medicines administration, and it's useful for more complex cases as it doesn't get tired, unlike us!
Hey so are theese devices in ambulances? Would love to know
@@Shroomroom-o5d they're not carried by a regular ambulance, but critical care, 3CU and AP will carry them
@@Shroomroom-o5d My local ambulance service moved to include one in every single ambulance. According to the paramedics, it's the first thing the firefighters ask for when the ambulance arrives on scene.
@@Shroomroom-o5dyes! Nurse here and we often use these machines en route to hospital or during critical care transport to other areas, ie cardiac centers! We also use them in A&E if trained staff are present depending on how many rounds of CPR we are likely to go through
@@Shroomroom-o5dthey are on some ambulances. Depends on how rich/ well funded local EMS is. Those machines aren't cheap.
I'm a medical student and for one of my clinical rotations I went to one of the most advanced emergency hospitals here and they had the chest compression kit like in 4:58 in their emergency room. And let me tell you it's f*ing terrifying seeing this working in a real life situation.
The Lucas device could give a pulse to a rib eye steak lol. It's an amazing device but I agree, definitely unnerving to watch.
Yes! But the energy it saves in interns and Med students and nurses rotating through doing chest compressions when instead the machine can do them allowing the staff to do the brain requiring bits… it’s amazing. The trauma center near me has one too and they’ve said it’s a miracle and life saver, especially when they get multiple heart attacks or multiple crash victims around the same time.
I think in Singapore, they use it on the ambulance to relief some manual labour from the medical staff.
I saw the Lucas machine in action recently when a middle-aged man collapsed in the hospital car park. Unfortunately the fastest route to the resuscitation rooms from the car park was through the actual A&E waiting room itself 🙈. This machine does literally look and sound the same when being used on an actual human as it did on the mannequin video here. The guy I saw it being used on survived by the way.
They brought the unit in to the pod (aka cubicle room) my husband was being treated in, to recharge afterwards. The nurse I spoke to further about the Lucas unit, said it helped improve survival chances, as it
- freed up the finite human resource available to carry out other checks and procedures,
- it didn’t get tired, it could be attached to a power supply to allow for continued use whilst charging the battery for portable use, and
- a defibrillator could still be utilised whilst it was attached.
I've seen the Lucas device used before at several emergency rooms; it's definitely unnerving, but I get the medical benefit to it for sure.
Thanks Doctor Mike for calling out that guy who was touting raw vegan eating as a health option without acknowledging the extreme privlege he has to do so. Not everyone can eat healthy on their income, not everyone has access to clean water and food that is safe before cooking. ❤
This, also in some cases the process of cooking releases certain nutrients. Also, cooked food (in many cases) tastes better. Enjoy your life people eating only raw is going to realistically extend your life by how much?
He looked exhausted as well. I have a hard time believing that any diet like that is maintainable for long-term.
Yeah, cooking food is a main reason why humans have big brains in the first place. It's like he wants a smaller brain.
@@diakounknown1225 😂 wow
As a raw vegan it will also be difficult to get all your essential nutrients, and unless you supplement you won’t get any B12.
Rob was kidding... he was saying to get ripped like me that fast you basically need to be super rich. Which was him saying, don't feel shamed, you probably do not have the resources I have as an actor... lol
And let's be honest, because most actors aren't. Yes, they eat healthy. Yes, they work out for several hour per day. Yes, they have trainers and doctors and nutritionists and entire teams paid to help them. But they also use steroids. Prescribed by a doctor, sure, but still anabolic steroids.
I don't get how people don't understand that he's making a joke. He's a comedian, he created and writes a well-known sitcom. He has talked about his body changes more than once and totally admits to the fact that his career and resources made it possible (the show paid for this endeavor as it was for a scene). Considering he gained and lost 60 pounds for one season and then years later got ripped for another season, I think it's understood that he takes extreme measures.
@@joshm3484 well i mean a lot of actors also go through some pretty devastating both physical and mental changes in these kinds of extreme diets to "get into shape" quickly for a movie or show
Yeah lmao that's basically what Dr. Mike said. No one is able to go to those lengths normally, and if they are is not always healthy.
Yah, I actually wish he showed more of that clip because it was very funny
Hey Dr Mike: paramedic here and I love your videos. The Lucas device for chest compressions is an amazing tool. You're correct it isn't practical for the streets or in a home but that isn't what it was designed for. It was designed for ambulances as it was found that it is VERY difficult to maintain adequate compressions in a moving vehicle or for agencies where there may only be 1 provider in the back, it is also utilized in emergency rooms for prolonged compressions such as hypothermic arrests where cpr can last for well over an hour and other needs. The Lucas is a medical device not made for the lay person, the price alone prohibits it. Zoll also has a similar device called the, autopulse.
Rob McElhenney is an actor/comedian. The point was he starts really normally saying to excercise and eat less and then it devolved into explaining how basically all you need is a ton of money and personal trainers and it's super easy to get ripped.
And I believe he’s hinting at seeing an expert for chemical assistance, not actually checking his natural testosterone levels
Yeah, it was kind of a commentary on unrealistic beauty standards and how you shouldn't chase these insane Hollywood standards.
I worked as an EMT for a short period of time, and you're 100% right about the automatic chest compression device. However, when you do have one in your rig, it opens up another set of hands, and the machine never gets tired.
exactly this. Only time ive ever seen one used was in the back of an ambulance to free up a set of hands to work on the pt as the driver keeps getting them to the ER. very valuable tool, very effective, and a huge help. But certainly has limited use cases realistically, i'd expect
@@Deviated09Exactly. Every ambulance should have one in my opinion, but it's unfortunate they cost $10,000+. $30,000 is not uncommon for them.
@@illig3tsniperftw thats insane... Although not really surprising a pricetag, i suppose... I'll leave that to another argument though.. Hopefully all units can have this equipped though, I'm all about anything making first responder jobs easier, especially if it is life saving equipment like this.

When the raw food guy started talking about “you’re looking at the face of someone...” I was waiting for him to tell us he has a horribly rare disease. Then he said he hasn’t eat cooked food in over 5 years and I was like, oh, that explain why he looks so sickly and gross. But then he followed it up like he wasn’t sickly and gross.
2:30: gurl looks more like sssniperwolf than sssniperwolf looks like sssniperwolf
I seen the study on raw food eating. Cooking foods breaks it down faster that allows the stomach to work faster into breaking it down farther leading to better absorption in the intestinal track. Raw foods sits in your stomach longer and doesn't break everything down causing more waste. You do lose some nutritional value when cooking, but it's so small that you wouldn't even notice.
@@la8ball Maybe that's why he stated to eat 3000kcal a day 😂
idk, imo he looks perfect for his age. I really doubt it's raw food tho, more like exercise and genetics

For those who don't know the plastic surgeon who was talking about how they would "fix" Natalia dyer if u want to look into it she made Natalia look exactly like her and if u look at the surgeons past she also had the same facial features as Natalia, so the surgeon was getting rid of her own insecurities on someone else
Not just that when that TikTok came out, so many people were enraged and they just dragged that woman to hell and back
@@chxrrymxxnlxght still doesn't give her a right to project her own insecurities onto someone else. Especially when there's nothing wrong with Natalia and Natalia isn't looking to get work done. Big yikes.

The LUCAS robots are actually apparently really useful for EMS if they need to continue chest compressions in an ambulance. It makes it a lot stabler in the vehicle and allows the paramedics to potentially focus on other aspects of care (such as administering a medication, getting an airway secured, placing leads to better monitor heart rhythm in case the pulse is there but just very weak or there's a different circulation issue, etc.)
As a Respiratory Care Practitioner in the ER setting, the LUCAS is amazing!! Our EMS crews use them frequently!
As someone with experience in this field, yes this is exactly when it’s best used!
But what Dr. Mike says is accurate. The average person does not have one of these in their backpack.
@@helpdeskchick And does not need to have one of those in their backpacks.
@@oscarcacnio8418 Obviously.
The sock thing is drilled into Marine recruits. Always have fresh socks. You're useless in the field if your feet go bad, and they easily can without clean or at least dry socks. Break in new boots immediately, and keep your socks fresh, are really big deals. All the military specific stuff means nothing if you're immobilized with a foot problem.

I'd just wear MULTIPLE socks and have one of those plastic bags around my feet so under by boots I got WATER PROOF TRIPLE INSULATON AND NO FOOT CHEESE
@@gkb0572 You know that doesn't work, right? Sweat as you're moving about can be just as problematic as trekking through areas that are extremely moist or humid. So you're basically wasting an extra pair or two of socks as they get drenched in sweat. Further more, those plastic bags do not work with constant movement, as there is no way to adhere the opening of the bag to your skin enough to prevent moisture from seeping into the bag as your leg and muscles are moving about. The correct thing to do is to be carrying several fresh pairs of socks in your backpack or rucksack and to change them at minimum every 6 hours if you're in an area with decent humidity, moisture, or if you are sweating, or every 3 hours minimum if you are constantly traveling through swampland.
@@nemec7914 Imagine being so miserable in your own life that you try to hurt other people in a youtube comment section
The LUCAS is machine used by emergency medical personnel, like EMTs and paramedics so they can provide a patient chest compressions while freeing up their hands to attend to the patients other medical needs. It also saves their energy since CPR can be exhausting and stressful, especially when you've been woken up at all hours of the night to respond to other emergencies. My boyfriend is a paramedic, and he has used the LUCAS on patients before.
I follow Footless Jo, she’s a great creator, and educates people about being an amputee. I’m so happy to see you feature her! I also can relate to what she says, I’m dealing with a messed up ankle, and it’s definitely a workout just get to around.
Doctor mike should have Jo on the channel for sure
I don't understand why footless joe is in this list... Her content is about her own lived experience and one post (taken out of context and rebranded as miss information) doesn't represent a whole load of valuable content! Dr. Mike's team should check her out properly and invite her on for a collaboration!
@@judithlashbrook4684 I'll admit I've been a little disappointed with Mike and his team lately. Sometimes it seems the team doesn't do proper research for the videos or don't give him context about what he is reacting to, and he doesn't read the comments to see the advice. If you check any of his reactions to Dr. House, he always has the same comments and questions regarding the show, even though people constantly explain in the comments why he is like that, why they do it like that, what it is happening. But there is no change in the content
@@judithlashbrook4684 true i wish he hadnt interrupted so much and just listened to her
I don't follow her but I've watched a number of her videos, very interesting.
Hey, so I have a pretty severe dowagers hump. Those “neck stretchers” are designed for people like me. And they actually do work. They just are uncomfortable because it’s literally stretching your spine slowly back into place. But they do work, they just take a week or two to see full effects.
Oh, there was a device i saw, years ago, that was a neck stretcher that attaches to a door, looking like a weird torture device. . This was in a Goodwill thrift store. It was in a box that made it look medical. LOL, i almost forgot about that. That is probably what that was for. Interesting. Hopefully, the inflatable one is better. I'm glad it's as least working for you. that sounds frustrating and uncomfortable to endure.
I have the hump. Its huge. Does it ACTUALLY work lol
I have kyphosis too and am convinced that the only way to fix this is to train the muscles at your shoulder blades. This will slowly pull your shoulders backwards and you'll stand more upright. It's annoying and I dislike sports, but for me it already improved quite a bit since going to the gym
@@BrianaLynn7 You have to do your own exercises as well, like the guy above me says. But doing that alone imo hasn’t entirely worked for me. It does a lot, but I struggle holding my posture consistently. That’s why this thing really helps.
I had one of those! The neck stretcher here is much safer.
Hey Dr. Mike! EM resident physician here. In my country (Spain), the LUCAS (chest compression machine) is used by paramedics once they reach the patient so the machine does the chest compressions during transport to the nearest Hospital. Often patients come in with the LUCAS once we receive them in the ER :)
I'm pretty sure it's common in parts of the UK as well. I've watched a show called Inside The Ambulance and they've used it
wow that so cool..... third world country doctor here..... wish i could ever see one of those in action
i know they also use them in some parts of the u.s! i’ve seen one in action myself
I was going to say, I've seen this on a show called Nightwatch, and the patients heart wasn't beating, but because the Lucas device was working in the ambulance, the patient was moving around and actually awake.
Former lifeguard here, we used the LUCAS when transporting patients on our speedboat to land, since on rough seas it's nearly impossible to do correct chest compressions!
07:30 - Okay but that guy's quadrobics form was actually so good-
That’s what I’m saying- lmao
I was waiting for someone to say this
He does have a bigger risk of jamming his fingers, but he does have hella good quadrobics
FRR
11:35 That condition is known as trench foot. It's called that because so many soldiers fighting in trenches during WWI suffered from it. Since the trenches were dug with poor drainage systems, they would often be partly flooded with water, leading soldiers feet to rot from soaking. The average life span of a british soldier fighting in trenches was about six weeks.
And it didn't help that the boots issued were very not water proof... in normal conditions not in ankle deep water for days on end
Also, to the guy talking about raw food: I have several chronic disorders (eoe, ibs, oral allergy syndrome) that prevent me from eating many raw vegetables and fruits. Cooking them breaks down certain fibres and proteins which then makes it safer for me to consume and get the nutrients I need 😊
Also love how he states. "It will cure everything." I wish.
I mean. I'd love it, but considering I have a neurological condition that's barely understood despite being known from at least the 1600s. It ain't gonna happen.
@callum me Lachlan What is it?
And he looks just as haggard as any 49 year old man out there, so it isn't even doing all of that for him, let alone cure any illness.
I have oral allergy syndrome and it is awful. I can no longer eat any fruits, vegetables, or nuts with it cooked enough to change fibers and proteins. It is incredibly inconvenient.
People say to eat raw and it’s like thanks, I’ll remember you when I can’t breathe.
Maybe it's just me but does that raw food guy look like an oil painting of a corpse? There's just something really unnatural looking about him like he's rotting away and is caking on makeup to hide it.

0:01 literally me.
I get headaches a lot, sometimes they’re so small I just lay down and drink water, and they’re gone in five minutes. Sometimes, it feels like my head is about to explode. It makes breathing hurt, because the air feels colder, meaning that my lungs and the inside of my nose feel like they’re about to freeze off, so I take small breaths, making me lightheaded, which makes the headache worse, which makes my nose and lungs hurt more, and it’s just an awful cycle.
But every time my mom massages my shoulders/neck, it’s gone almost instantly.
Soooo..

Shes really beautiful, the vid made me jusge the doctors face and it looks plastic.
Yeah, and she ruined the face.
Kinda reminds me of k-stars. They have a basic formula on what they think is beautiful that makes everyone looks so similar to one another.
It was pretty bad. A person can make all the corrections they want, but unless it's to correct something that actually could use help, like severe damage from an accident, plastic surgery just tends to make a person look more and more fake and uncanny.
@@EstherHulst-Artist I noticed all her photoshopping just turned her more similar to the doctor and it was then I realised her eyebrows looked glued up and her forehead was shinny like plastic.

I'm glad you used 'withdrawal' to describe what happens after you get off certain meds. The clinical-sounding "discontinuation syndrome" always rubbed me the wrong way.
I think some people avoid it due to connotations it has with addiction, and since so many people don’t differentiate chemical dependency and addiction, it can cause further confusion, but I never loved “discontinuation syndrome,” either. Maybe instead of using a soft language term, we should just… I dunno, educate people! 😅
@@AmaraJordanMusic If it was as simple as just educating people, you wouldn't have people confusing addiction to illegal drugs with doctor's treatments.
@@TheSwauzz Respectfully, I disagree. I’ve encountered people who don’t want to hear, who think they can spot an addict, “you can always tell, just how they look,” even in the medical field. And those people aren’t reachable.
But there are a lot of people who haven’t been chronically ill or been around addictive medication very much. They hear about the Opioid crisis all the time, they hear about alcohol addiction. It’s in the media all the time. Fights, crashes, overdoses. It’s all about addiction.
Chemical dependency simply doesn’t get the same amount of air time, it’s not a national topic of concern and conversation. I’ve had people think I was an addict because I was on pain medication. I had to explain to them, “Yes, for some people, taking pain meds effects them wildly differently and their brains light up like Christmas. For me, when I take a pill, if I feel anything other than less pain, it’s maybe itchy, sleepy, or queasy. That’s my body telling me it’s a higher dose than usual. But I don’t feel “euphoria,” or get high from it. I’m lucky that that’s how my brain deals with narcotics, but for some people, if they had the regimen I had, they’d be experiencing addiction, which is different.” Then a brief explanation of that. “If I stop the meds, I will go through withdrawal, much like an addict would, because my body has been used to it for so long that not having the medication all of a sudden would shock it. That’s why we taper slowly and switch to a non-narcotic, then no pain medication.”
Most realized I was not an addict. Two people called it BS. One came to me later and apologized. He’d looked it up and found out I wasn’t lying, like he expected an addict would.
For other people (I’m a patient outreach supervisor at a pain clinic), the summary would be, “People’s brains react differently. Some don’t develop addiction, but can experience withdrawal if they discontinue their meds because your body is still used to it, and it IS a powerful brain-altering substance. Don’t worry, just taking it does not mean you’re an addict, but don’t discontinue without making a tapering plan with us so we can avoid withdrawal. No need for extra pain.”
Some people get it, accept it, move on. Some people are more nervous and need more information. We even get people who self-report when they think they develop a problem, or are starting to. It’s much more likely that that will happen when we have an open conversation about addiction risk and other treatment options from the get-go. Understanding addiction, and how it starts, helps some people get out of the cycle before they have to hit rock bottom.
People that understand addiction and chemical dependency and withdrawal tend to be more open about those processes and less judgy-shamey with themselves and others about it. It’s just another thing our bodies do. 🤷🏻♀️
Some people don’t want to learn, sure. But that doesn’t mean information isn’t power.
ok
☺️ these comments are hilarious!
I don't know what's worse: the fact that they think they're giving legit advice or the amount of people that will actually believe them. Thankfully, we have someone like Dr. Mike to fact check them.

For the amputee one, this person had daily pain in her ankle from the time she was young (a result from an accident involving a horse) so her activity levels were likely extremely low before she got her amputation, which would explain her talking about being more hungry

I agree with the body dysmorphia counseling when getting plastic surgery. I had my nose changed when my chronic rhinitis was fixed. Because I did this surgery outside of the U.S. I did not get counseling and my surgeon wanted to really change my nose. I was glad that I told him I simply wanted my nose to look how it had before I broke it.
On freckles--
I never disliked mine, and I'm disappointed they've faded with age! Wish I had them back.
Doctor Mike, I’ve spent and uncomfortable amount of time just having your content run in the background because your content is genuine. Keep up the good work and thank you. Your comment on how not everyone can afford to choose safe/healthy options. Most blatantly ignore that fact and you called it out immediately. Good man, thank you.
Thank you for discouraging plastic surgery. I think it is so sad that people think they need to modify themselves to look good. We need more people like you telling them the grass is not greener on the other side.
A lot of mental illnesses work like that. You think "If I could only have/do/look like x, I could finally be happy." Then that thing happens, and your anxiety or depression just finds something else to fixate on. That's how plastic surgery addicts are formed.
Well he did actually made a collab like vid with a plastic surgeon before
Can plastic surgery...melt? Is the vid name
i mean, theres definitely good uses for plastic surgery! after a severe accident, if youre trans...
but i do agree, if its purely because you suffer from body dysmorphia (not to be confused with gender dysphoria!), its best to seek a therapist instead of a plastic surgeon
@Nome [Virtual Gravedigger, Member Of Dab Police] Yeah but he was Holistic that different

The neck stretcher is good to help with stiffness. As a person that has had 2 neck surgeries due to ruptured disc and stenosis, that machine has helped alleviate a lot of pain without having to take pain meds. I only use it when my neck gets stiff a long with stretches of course. Was recommended by my chiropractor. May be a mind over matter thing but with no pain meds, I'm down with the placebo effect.
Nah, I could see that. Helps create space between the vertebrae, which can certainly relieve pain. I have two herniated discs from a car accident, and I achieve similar results with an inversion board.
Ahhhhh traction
Nah, my dad’s a pain management specialist who tries to work around pain meds when he can, and for some patients things like that work wonders. Having their necks in traction for I think just 5-15 minutes a few times a day when they’re having issues can really keep the problem from getting worse, their pain compounding, and them then needing pain medication.
A trigger for migraines for me is tension in my neck causing a tension headache, and one of those expanding neck wraps helped me get ahead of it before the muscle had time to keep tightening up.
I do recommend using some heat beforehand, but generally, it’s a snazzy that they’re more widely available now.
I know that bad boy worked because it would stretch my neck so much that it would Crack and I'd feel like separate. It felt like I gained am inch. I got a new , better , more intricate stretcher a few days ago and I love it. But that blow up one definitely helped. I had to really blow it up as much as it possible could go though. That's why I switched to the kind where you put your head in a contraption and can pull it up and it will lock where you lift it too. I can pull down my my body weight to separate the cervical spine
"Recommended by my chiropractor" is not a positive. Chiropractic is woo woo.

One small thing with the chest compression robot. My dad’s a firefighter/paramedic, and he’s said their department uses it a lot. It’s just a much more consistent alternative while they’re preparing the person for transport. Plus if I’m right, you can attach it to the gurney and have it running while you’re driving to the hospital if need be (could be wrong on that though)
I've definitely seen it used in a UK based documentary where they follow ambulance crews (and the air ambulance) around to scenes. It allowed them to drive faster to hospital as there wasn't a paramedic having to stand in the back doing compressions, they could sit seatbelted in, just monitoring the machine keeping the patient alive.
Yes, it´s also used in helicopters where CPR can be pretty much imposible due to the small space, and for organ donors, to keep the blood flowing until you arrive to the hospital
"Testicle Bath"😂 3:35
Im so glad you did a clip from Footless Jo. I love watching her because, as someone who is not an amputee, I naturally have questions. She answers a lot of wonders freely and openly. I know for me, I get insanely hungry when Im sick (flu or cold), or, I found out, after I had a series of dental surgery visits. I was incredibly hungry all the time for about two weeks. I think its not only us trying to heal, but also she had to adapt and use more calories learning to walk again. Just figured Id share, because when I saw that clip on her channel, I thought the two situations were oddly similar.
I love footless joe! She’s so fun and relatable but also down to earth

The chest compression machine is used by healthcare professionels. We also have it in Denmark. They often use it when they have to give a person chest compressions for a longer period of time. It's actually really handy and I have seen it being used on multiple occasions
@@Facadeee Relax dude. I never said anything about not getting the job done. I'm just saying that it's a handy tool for healthcare workers. They use it because it never gets tired like people do. Take a chill pill and have a nice day
I'm a Respiratory Therapist and I've seen it used once before. It's SUPER handy. But it is a bit pricey to have which is unfortunate because it works so well! 😊
I would have *loved* having one of those things for chest compressions when I worked bedside!! I can remember a few times when I didn't really have anyone to switch with due to understaffing and my back is definitely the poorer for it!
Thank god for people like you who can calmly call out these people; I was sitting here losing my mind and yelling at the screen at these absolute psychos. It’s six am, I woke up my elderly parents.
My sisters and I used to be not hungry all the time but able to put an incredible amount of food away when we did eat-it turned out that we weren’t properly digesting our food (if I recall correctly it was due to lack of proper bacteria and enzymes, and a disorder of not digesting fat on our own), so we weren’t getting enough nutrition from what we ate and needed more to get enough.
At 11:55. What you're talking about is called Trench Foot, and it can result in the forced amputation of the lower legs. This was quite common during the first world war, after being for long times in the trenches. Therefor, Trench Foot.
Had a high school teacher who was in a tropical area while military, while he didn't get into graphic detail we all had an appreciation for ensuring we didn't stay in wet socks/shoes for long periods after his class
I've had that when backpacking in wet weather for a couple days. My skin got so soft, it split in a few places. Idk if it was actually trench foot or not. It cleared up after a few days of dry socks, foot powder and some antibiotic ointment on the splits.
11:40. That guy had Trench Foot, which is caused by water being in foot garments, such as socks, for long periods. There were many cases of Trench foot during WW1 because of all the water and knee-deep mud.

I'm in awe of how Dr.Mike literally knows every condition in the world! Keep it up Dr.Mike!
as many have pointed out already, the LUCAS is standard in many EU countries. I am a paramedic from Austria and we also use this machine for CPR. In our case only the vehicle transporting the NOTARZT (emergency doctor) has one on board, however since an ambulance AND an emergency doctor are dispatched to a patient in cardiac arrest, we more often than not use this machine to save peoples lives.
Greetings from Austria, love your videos:)
Lucas is really cool! I was able to watch it at the long night of science at the meduni vienna :D they demonstrated how it works and also explaint it!
Greetings from a nurse student in vienna :D
Bin aus Soizburg🎉
My ER in the UK also has one (as do at least some of the ambulances), but if your patient isn't receiving manual CPR while they're waiting for the doctor/paramedic to arrive then it probably isn't going to be much use. Especially in the UK where the current wait time for ambulances to respond to a heart attack can be an HOUR! (I'm assuming for cardiac arrests they're faster than that, but who knows...)
@@callum9999 in austria the response time is quicker, thank god nobody has to wait 1h, but I definitely agree. The hands only chest compressions by non medical personel are crucial for the survival of the patient. (Until the ambulance arrives and they can take over). So if no one performs chest compressions for let's say 10min or longer...the LUCAS will not magically bring them back to life. I definitely agree with you on that
They're pretty much standard in the US too. I've been an EMT for 10 years and we've used them my entire career.
I was a reporter and did a story 10 years ago about how the Lucas machine was being used in every Palm Beach County rescue vehicle. Emergency workers would hook it up to patients that need chest compressions while transporting to the hospital. It made sure the compressions were perfect and freed up emergency workers to focus on other life saving aid.
PREACH Doctor MIKE! I tried telling my niece about this. On day she came to me with something she saw on facebook that helped her with something medical.
I responded with “yeah, and did you know that if you rub coconut oil on your face before you go to bed it gets rid of your acne?”
My niece: “What? Really?! I didnt know that”
Me: 🤦🏼♀️
Oh Dr Mike we've been using the Lucas device for chest compressions in the hospital setting for a while now, and it works especially well at providing quality compressions without the fatigue a person would experience. Helpful for paramedics also!
I work with a lot of teens for my job, and I often have to have a conversation with them about the legitimacy of tiktok "facts. Especially in regards to mental health, and beauty and diet culture. The misinformation that tiktok teaches is worrying, but so happy for the factual way Doctor Mike handles these things!
It's really troubling that people fall for things like this, and just general "internet stupidity"; before their ability to use common sense is fully formed. I feel like so much bogus content goes on to cause continuing damage to vital cognitive brain function. And all hope of learning to think and act logically is impaired greatly.

We knew that if we jumped from someplace high, that gravity was gonna do its job, and that someone was gonna get hurt. So many kids, and young adults even, just seem to be lacking basic logic. It is definitely concerning.
I think one of the reasons why it's happening more and more nowadays also has to do with the fact that many medical professionals don't take people's concerns seriously so they have no other way to turn to expect the internet.
Unfortunately even people like Dr Mike teach incorrect facts, in this video alone he said factually incorrect things about the use of the LUCAS and also about caloric intake required by amputees
The best baby reflexes are when you lightly touch the side of their cheek with your finger, their little head turns and their mouth opens slightly and it’s the cutest thing ever 🥰
The second one is taking your finger and gently gliding it on the sole of their foot. It extends their foot and wiggles their toes in the most adorable way! This is also a neat trick to help a parent get shoes on a toddler if they crinkle their toes into a ball and won’t extend them 😂
My oldest son ended up in the NICU for a long period of time and before he finally came home the doctor spent a long time showing me how to properly check his reflexes. She taught me how to check everything from his head, all the way to his toes and showed me exactly how the reflexes were supposed to look so I knew what to expect and if there might be something wrong. I’ve had two more kids since then and I did the same thing for both of them even though they had no health concerns at birth. I also taught my friends how to check their babies as well 🥰 not only is it good for parents to check these things but it’s also so stinkin cute!
“We’re not supposed to cook our food!” But, that’s literally what separated us from the rest of the animals in the beginning.
I appreciate that Rob detailed how he got so ripped and simultaneously explained how unrealistic it is for any human without tons of money that is simultaneously doing literally anything else besides trying to get ripped af. Some people really need to hear it, that celebrities are just not going to be in yhe dame environment as the rest of us because when yout job relies on your looks, your job is going to incorporate time to work on looks and the money needed to maintain them.
Yes! It's like admiring any talent while ignoring the cost of lessons, hours of pratice, and years of sacrificing other interests. We have unrealistic expectations! I recently read that in Norway, published photos have to display a notice that they've been digitally altered. We need to be reminded that what's real and healthy is what's going to make us happy! 😊
Never wanted to be a doctor nor thought about it, but Dr. Mike actually makes it seem fun! Thank you for that
need a huge brain to be one 😕
@@augenblick9925 Just study hard!
@@augenblick9925 true, and also hours of studying and stress which i realized when i was listening to dr. mike’s videos. 😭 i js decided to be an engr bec i can’t handle that stress
You have to be a special person to want to be a doctor for real. You could be a construction worker (still hard work) and make a similar wage. Dr. Mike probably actually cares about people, judging by his content.
ok
What Dr Mike said about the eyeball tattoos, its really a shame to me how risky the procedure is and how difficult it would make diagnosing any eye issues. I love the way tattoos like that look and if i could have my sclera tattooed without significant risk and without the judgement of other people i would absolutely do it
Honestly, if you have no problems with putting contacts in, i'd say get some colored sclera contacts. They can be a little expensive, and putting ANYTHING in your eyes has its risks (especially if you havent done enough research). But if you wanna have fully black eyes sometimes, contacts are safer than tattooing.
I wear contacts every now and then, basically the same result just dont keep them in 24/7 obviously
Mike's face when the guy pushed the fork under the patella.... priceless 😂
I forked my leg, it was cake
- "so how do you like my photoshop skills?"
- "pffffff they suc-"
-Doctor mike wise words

Imagine driving across the countryside and you see a dude doing that on his lawn
4:15 is my fav part😭the cutoff was so funny to me
My nose runs almost every time when I eat something warm, I don't know why 😂 but it never did me bad, my family all has the same experience
Obviously you are allergic to warm
I am with you on that
My grandma's nose runs every meal.
Warm soup makes runny nose. Helps decongesting. That's why it's recommended when you have a cold!
Mine anf my moms nose often do that but to my dad that's still such a weird thing because He has never experienced that except for like Real spicy food.
7:40 yippieeee dr mike ❤❤❤❤
I do this sometimes lol 😂😂😂
I love the tenacity in the way Dr. Mike debunks some of these things in media 😂 Just watching his face as he is preparing to smash the really far fetched concepts makes me laugh.
I didn't watch his video and I'm seriously laughing!
ok
And how some of the things that look ridiculous he reserves a bit of comment on without trying or learning more. Maybe a stretch, but the 'mouth thing' could very well be a tool for endoscopy, with a little 'fun' added to it. The neck stretcher might actually be a help using it for a few minutes, no worse than doing some stretches... (Granted, this doesn't take into account cost/benefit for something that is already easy for most people...).
ok
9:23 i think mike is about to go insane
Lol
Over the summer, I had severe pain in my shoulder that was radiating down my arm. My doctor recommended I try the neck stretcher. He said if it helped with the pain, it could potentially indicate the issue was coming from my neck. It didn't really help the pain, but it felt okay. Turns out I had a herniated disc in my neck that was pressing against a nerve.
Ah.
Maybe the doctor should have ordered imagery before prescribing palliative treatment. Especially when the pain "radiates" like that.
@@OctavKitty He did thankfully. He recommended trying it while we waited for the results of the MRI. Very little was helping unfortunately, so this was just something to try to see if it helped.
I was once mountain biking on this intermediate trail I hated so much I had to ride the brakes, because it's so hard to control the bike. I decided NOT to use the brakes anymore and step out of my comfort zone for a slightly large root drop, about 1-3 feet not too much. Right after it is a decently sharp left turn that I couldn't take going as fast as I was, it was easily 10-20 MPH and just went SOARING into bushes. I almost broke my lower left ribs, because I had a nasty gash right under my farthest lower left rib and was shaken up. Me and my dad went down to the bottom of the mountain, which had the medical team there. They gave me gauze, tape, Neosporin all the good stuff. I really couldn't eat food; all I could do was drink Gatorade. Right after I went right back up the lift and kept shredding on green trails, took it really easy and had fun. I still have a scar in the same spot, it healed relatively quickly. Looking back on it, I'm glad it happened. I learned not to go above my skill level, and I always remember it with laughs and smiles.
2:06 I actually had a patient in the hospital at age 38 with aspirational pneumonia because of that exact reason! Passed out drunk and all her friends left her by herself and she was found the next day by a family member
I know it’s a funny video, but I just want to thank Dr. Mike for dispelling these harmful TikTok’s, not only physically harmful but for me especially mentally harmful. I really appreciate when he dispels myths about body image and losing weight because as a woman, even though I stay away from social media and beauty media, I’m still harmed by the things people say and it’s so nice for someone to just verify how ridiculous some of the things are.
I came here to say this too ❤️
Doctor Mike, as someone in prosthetics and orthotics school (master's program), it is actually a known fact that amputation and ambulating with a prosthesis does lead to significantly higher energy expenditure for as many years post-op as they continue to ambulate with prostheses. This is something we covered last week in school. While there may be another problem at play in anyone who experiences this, it may actually be normal.
And the expenditure of energy increases with the loss of each joint in the lower limb.
A lot of disabilities can affect your calorie requirements. I have a neurological condition, my mobility is limited and I have muscle spasms. I'm significantly less active than I was before, I haven't changed my diet but I haven't gained any weight.
Yeah, that video was actually a good video. I follow Footless Jo who was in that video. She shouldn't have been in this video.
I love how he didn’t get the joke on the 2nd one, THAT’S CAKE! There are these videos that make you think they’re doing something that they shouldn’t do, but they’re actually cutting cake.
Hey Dr Mike, I'd love to see a reaction video on a couple episodes of the golden girls, like the one where Rose is waiting for her AIDS results and especially the two part one where Dorothy can't find a doctor who will take her illness seriously. Her speech to the doctor that dismissed her... Epic. That was all from creator/writer Susan Harris' own experiences.
Yesss. We need this episode
YESSS PLS
Yes yes yes!!!
I recalled the dismissal of illness episode when the doctors tried the same to me and kept being a pest until they gave me the right test and found my not imaginary problem. I know I couldn't have been the only one to think that way because of it.

"I am having pain in this area, what can I do?"
TikToker: "Have you tried to turn it off and on again?"
Daughter of a First Aid instructor here! My mother has been a huge fan of the Lucas pump for a while. You're right that it's not very useful in situations where random people just find someone in the street or if something happens at home, but it's hugely useful for ambulance personnel. Because that thing will keep giving chest compressions while the patient is on the stretcher being transported and that frees up the ambulance workers' hands for other things that might increase their chance of survival. It can keep giving chest compressions in transit wihout the hassle of having another person needing enough space and the right angle to keep giving compressions. For example, while you're loading the patient up into the ambulance, that thing is still on and still giving chest compressions. Same goes for hospital situations, by the way. It just frees up one person's hands and requires less space than someone having to kneel or stand beside the person.
I don't think it was ever meant for use by lay people in the street. From what I've heard it's used primarily by professionals like ambulance and hospital personnel.
I’ve seen the chest compression kit being used quite a few times on “Night Watch” the New Orleans based reality rescue show. It’s incredible! I mean it little hard to watch at first cause it looks so rough, but that’s how good chest compression are suppose to look. It keeps the blood flow going the whole trip, and frees up the paramedics to work on other things to help the patient.
That plastic surgeon has some personal insecurities that she's projecting HARD. In case you need to hear this, you do not exist to be attractive to other people. You are amazing and wonderful when you don’t put any time or care into your appearance and you’re just as amazing and wonderful when you do.
